Caring for Animals 
The manual consists of 22 teaching activities that help children to understand and explore our relationships with dogs and cats.

In some countries, notably the UK and the USA, individuals and organisations have been producing humane education materials and programmes for a considerable time.

These sometimes have to be adapted substantially before being suitable for use in other countries with different issues and concerns. Indigenous animal welfare organisations are addressing this subject by producing humane education materials suitable for their countries, in terms of the topics covered, the language and the teaching methods. A variety of these teaching resources would be suitable for other countries with similar problems, with some modifications to make them more widely applicable. This teachers' workbook is a superb example of such a resource.

Testimonials
 
"During the last couple of months our veterinary funds have been taking some real strain and are almost totally depleted. Without WSPA’s help, we simply could not rescue and treat any more animals."
